is it unusual for a 17 year old to be a virgin?

Answer 1

Nope, I was a virgin until I was nineteen. I think I was the only virgin when I graduated high school! But I was proud of that, and the fact that I didn't cave in to peer pressure.

Answer 2

not @ all it's perfectly normal & great because people loose their virginity @ a very young age.to loose virginity before marriage is considered to be a sin so you would rather not become a sinner just to vent out your feelings & what possibly everyone is doing n last but not least & the most important thing your life-partner will respect you for being a virgin.

Answer 3

No, i think its GREAT and i wish more teens would wait til they are 18 or older.

my daughter is 18 and im so very glad that she hasnt gone there yet. She is smart and going to college for the next 4 years instead of running around with boys.

I'm a very proud single mom of 3 girls :)

Answer 4

No,dear,it`s not unusual.I think it`s stupid what`s going on,the pressure put on the kids "to have sex,`cuz it`s only natural to do so".It`s stupid and iresponsable, because it`s not "natural" to do something u r not mentally and socially prepared to do.I remember that someday, on my birthday, someone wanted to make me a gift by sending a prostitute to help me loose my virginity.He only told me about his plan because something happened and she never showed up.I was shocked.This is very true.I was extremly happy she didn`t show up.I was completely unprepared for that.Many friends do this in order to"help" someone,but thus doing something completly opposite to "helping".The"helped" ones do not refuse, but many are tempted to do so, but they accept the "gift" afraid of being ridiculed by their friends, wich is EXTREMLY wrong.
I had a few opportunities to loose my virginity, but I didn`t do it, because I knew she wasn`t "the one".I NEVER regreted it.
I lost my virginity at 25 years old, and I didn`t go nuts, I didn`t need to be institutionalized, and never had any health problem because of this.Of course u might feel bad about not having someone for a girlfriend (or boyfriend, depending on the case), but that is not due to the fact that u don`t have sex.The best thing is to wait until u get married,and than do it.Anyway, it`s crucial u do it with someone u love, care for, and trust, because it`s much easier to learn about this aspect of life, together with someone who understands u, loves u and support u by "being there" for u.You thus avoid being ridiculed by someone who`s more experienced, and doesn`t give a dime on you and your feelings.It`s not bad to wait, it`s wrong to rush.

Answer 5

You sound like me i'm a Christian too & i'm 17 yet I lost my virginity awhile in the past. even if it doesn't make you unattractive or hassle-free in any respect. do not allow absolutely everyone inform you in the different case.

Answer 8

I think it is great, i wish more girls would have that self control and not screw around with every guy that asks. I was 16 b/f i lst mine and i married the man.

Answer 9

not at all and i think that anyone who has made it to that age and they are still a virgin should be VERY proud of themselves for being able to fight the temptation.

Answer 10

why if she is not that much appealing for the guys then she will remain a virgin all her life.who cares.
